Chasing the Ghost
Nobelist Fred Reines and the Neutrino
by Leonard A Cole"Chasing the Ghost nicely describes how successful the derring-do attitude of individual researchers can be. Reines variously comes across as endearing, admirable and irritating. He could alarm his team by tugging on cables to test electronics as he whistled his way through a lab, and was quick to over-interpret results. But he was a hands-off, respectful lab chief who addressed his team with old-fashioned formality as 'Mr' (they seem to have all been men) — even as he ignored their rights to holidays. Those interviewed all tell how they fell under his spell, and worked hard to please him. One anecdote has him on one knee, singing an aria at a party. Unlike his neutrinos, it seems, Reines was always an unmistakable presence."

Spinach on the Ceiling
The Multifaceted Life of a Theoretical Chemist
by Martin Karplus"The scientific sections would work very well as reference or study material. For those who have an interest in the deeper scientific aspects of Karplus' work, this book is definitely worth a perusal."

The Science of Learning Physics
Cognitive Strategies for Improving Instruction
by José P Mestre & Jennifer L Docktor"Had this wonderful book been available to me when I was an undergraduate student, I may never have switched my major from Physics to Math to Cognitive Science. Among the book's other contributions, it contains a highly readable and accurate summary of what research on learning has to say about how students learn, versus how they — and their teachers — may think they learn."

Special Issue on Digital Innovation Management Guest Editors: Andreas Pinkwart, Jörn Block, Dorian Proksch and Christian Fisch
The digital transformation leads to strong changes in the business world. Digital business models disrupt well-established industries and the emergence of digitized business processes transforms value creation. The importance of the topic will increase due to the Covid-19 pandemic. An increasing demand for home-office or the implementation of measures of physical distancing now requires companies to organize their processes in a digital way. Digitization offers several opportunities for an improvement of innovation management processes, which constitutes the focus of this special issue.
Special Issue on Advanced Software Service Engineering Guest Editors: Zhongjie Wang, Zhuofeng Zhao and Guobing Zou
Service systems are complex socio-technological systems that combine people,physical facilities and software together to offer various types of bus iness services to end users. This special issue is for the scientific and industrial community to present their novel methodologies, techniques, and solutions which can address theoretical and practical issues. It is worth mentioning that the submissions are the selected papers with high quality which have been reported at the CCF 13th International Conference on Service Science (ICSS 2020). These selected papers are seriously improved with substantial extensions and recommended to this special issue.
Topical Issue: Solid-State Electrolytes and Solid-State Batteries for Next-Generation Energy Storage Guest Editors: Hiroki Nagai and Shufeng Song
The all-solid-state battery is the “ultimate battery”. It is because there is a possibility to solve the defects of lithium ion secondary batteries used in personal computers and smart-phones. To address the most state-of-the-art progress in the solid-state electrolytes and solid-state batteries, we organized a Topical Issue on “Solid-State Electrolytes and Solid-State Batteries for Next-Generation Energy Storage”. This issue consists of a number of brief reviews and original papers.
